Goose Creek — A city police officer and several other people were shot tonight during a domestic call, authorities said. A suspect also was shot.

Goose Creek police use the hood of a squad car where they had responded to one of their officers being shot on Iris Street in the Pinewood neighborhood on Monday night.
Around 8:20 p.m. shots were fired at a home on Iris Street. A Goose Creek police officer was shot after he responded to a report of domestic disturbance at the house, authorities said.

He was taken to Trident Medical Center and later transferred to Medical University Hospital in critical condition, authorities said. Late tonight, the officer, who’s name was not released, was reported to be alert and talking. He was still in the intensive care unit, though.

The suspect and an unknown number of other people at the home also were shot. The extent of their injuries was unknown.
